Hoboken Condos Sales & Activity – Week of February 9th.
Well, there is no question that inventory is approaching the 500 active unit mark again. Not a good sign, especially when sales remain sluggish. Sure, my buyers were outbid on a beautiful 3 bedroom this week. But the build-up is in the 2 bedroom area. Big 3 bedrooms with all the bells and whistles are few and far between. Sure, some prime properties in prime locations with all the sought-after amenities still sell quickly. It’s the other sellers that I worry about. I’ve seen some strange things (see 501 9th St. below). I’m sure there will be more to come. Unless, of course, things really start to change when the storm blows over!

- 495 active Hoboken condo units today – vs. 463 last week.

What was up with 501 9th Street? Listed for $560k and sold for $480k (nice looking 2 br with parking) with no price reductions in 54 days? That’s a comp killer – bet his neighbors aren’t too happy. It was a “for sale by owner” who paid a flat fee to get listed on the MLS and was sold by a “non-member” which means the agent that brought the buyer was not a member of the Hudson County MLS – or, in other words, from out of town. According to the tax records, the owner paid $490k back in 2004. The last sale of a unit that size (1033 sq ft) seems to have been in Aug. 2008 for $615k!!! Granted – pre-Lehman but that’s quite a difference for essentially the same unit. Guess this owner was very anxious to get out.
- 803 Willow listed at $565k on Sep 16; reduced to 541k on Oct 27; $535k on Nov 16; sold for $500k
- 403 Monroe listed at $299k on Aug 18; reduced to $289k on Oct 2; sold for $275k.
18 price reductions. Includes a bunch of price cuts at “Capella”. They’ve only got 4 out of 20 2brs under contract in the whole building.

2 new listings
53 active listings. Average price $962,589. Average 127 DOM.
